Moving to a new blog




As with many things, all good things must come to an end and so it is for this particular section of my blogs.   Due to a recent snafu with google, I had a problem with a flag for "spamming" on a few places I post to.   This is partially my fault, but I have not had the same success with sharing my writing and travels with people since then.  Recently there was a problem with Google where I made multiple posts by accident on a few communities, and as a result I was flagged for spam.  There is no way to appeal such a decision, as Google does not list any contact information to appeal, and many communities do not list moderators. So now, I have lost these years worth of work and networking. As such I am going to make a new blog and keep this one up for posterity's sake. 

Links to my new frontpage, my travel blog and my writing journal can be found on the right but you can follow the links here as well.

Looking back I have fond memories writing here, and while my initial blogging was about my book, my craft of writing I see that people enjoyed my travel blogs more.  I have some ideas on how I want to capitalize on this, hopefully to the advantage of my regular writing.   The Blackwood Blog served its purpose.  It was conceived out of my creative spark, but it changed over time.   I thank my lucky stars I had the opportunity to write here and I look forward to continuing.  To those who follow me, and who like reading, I thank you as well.   I hope you will follow me to the new blog.  I hope those who look back here will find some nice insights and ideas about writing and travel in general.

For now though, a new possibility stands before me with the promise of new paths to traverse.
